Hands On Demo: Dive Kick

Dive Kick is the world's first two-button fighting game and it's coming to the PlayStation 3, PS Vita, and Steam via Greenlight. The developer wanted to stand out from the rest of the other fighting games out there and remove learning combos and strategies. Instead, the developer wants you to rely on instinct.

The advantage of playing on PS Vita is "the most romantic mode in fighting games," which lets you play two-player versus matches on one Vita console. So if you are with a buddy, both of you can play together on one Vita. They take advantage of the touch screen and back-touch pad of the Vita, and you can use the D-pad and buttons.

When in game, there is a power up function called "Kick Factor" and once your shoe power level is built you get a red glow around your character that allows you to jump higher. "Kick Factor" will last until the red shoe bar is emptied.

Characters have two super moves, one for ground and one for air. So far there are 12 characters and still more to be announced. No use of the PS Vita's Near function, and no word yet on ad-hoc mode. Also, there's no word yet on price, or cross-buy, even though cross-play is confirmed. As is a Platinum trophy.
